I want to create a prototype for this project (the prototype can be made in a terrarium, and also in the collective garden at Bauhaus Uni):

“The inner landscape”. The project consists of a space that will function as a collective garden, similar to a nursery, in which I want to implement a permaculture system for use as a place for retreat and planting, and harvesting of the plants inside of it. This project will work well in a public or community place, and I would like to involve in it, participants from within and outside of the art context. This place will be a receptacle where people, in addition to being involved in gardening, can plant especially their memories and experiences. We will open the call for people to deposit in this garden, as a way of the substrate, objects and materials loaded with their own, family, and social histories. And we will invite people to do exercises of writing or vocalizing memories, sharing them with others if they wish. The intention is that participants can grow or let go of the burdens of those memories, and that the experience of planting and giving those away is an exercise of channeling and liberation. A plaque will be inserted written the project´s intention, inviting people to plant their memory objects and writings, and those who plant their memories will also be invited to send us a brief text about those, to that text can be printed on a small signal plaque, which will be inserted in the place where those memories were planted (as is common in certain gardens or orchards with the species of plants).

This space will become a collective archive in which personal and contextual experiences are transformed and reconstructed into natural growths. Nature dissolves hostilities, gives a new connotation and spirit to matter and events, and provides a new beginning and a different perspective. With my work, I'm focusing on how the relationship with contexts, environments, and people will conform, complete, and suggest how the art processes are going to develop. And for me is important how the art projects may become a platform or justification for generating coexistences, relationships and empathies, using the natural as a point of departure, as a sensorial and sensitive scenario, and also like an end itself.

For a big prototype in the field: The external structure will be composed of metal or wood, recycled materials, depending on the availability of the materials and the suggestions of the people who will make use of the garden or who are familiar with the space where the project will be located. This structure can also be variable according to practical, aesthetic or symbolic needs. View from above:

      Approximate diameter: 4 to 5 m
